Lady Hobbs it worked!

I checked the readings last night and nitrites were down to .25 ppm 0 on ammonia. I checked this morning and the nitrites are now at zero and the nitrates are at 10 ppm. My betta is going to feel like he moved from an efficiency to a mansion! Thanks so much.

Great to hear but you need to make sure those readings are lower because the bacteria finished up and not just due to the water change. But I think you had a stalled cycled and it needed that "bump" to get it going again.

I would dose for maybe two more days to make sure all is well. Congratulations and thank you.
